Why do you think husbands always disappoint their wives?
Why do you always think husbands always disappoint their wives? Do you believe in the institution of marriage? Everyone is getting divorced, so why not just have fun and date w/o the marriage certificate? I think I'm done with the Latinos. They don't want to work hard, or at all, and want us to do everything for them! Es la verdad!!!

There is actually much to be said in favor of "arranged marriages"
I agree - there is a lot. Freedom is hard choice. It's often about trial and error. With many errors. Yet for me that's what the miracle of life is about.

Why do you always think husbands always disappoint their wives?
For the same reasons that wives always disappoint their husbands (although I would say "often" , rather than "always", in both cases). Somewhere around the 13th/14th century the idea of "romantic love" was invented (although it didn't become really widespread until Hollywood, Bollywood, etc. took up the cause).
In Darwininian terms, marriage is about "propagation of the species". In Judeo-Christian terms, "Be fruitful and multiply" (but, in either case, the message is "propagate those genes"). Successful propagation does not require that you like one another (much less love one another); only that you provide a stable economic/social unit that supports the survival of your offspring.
There is actually much to be said in favor of "arranged marriages" (which were common well into the 19th century {throughout Europe and America [and still are the norm in some places]) . The parents were knowledgeable about their children but not influenced by the "rampant hormonal impulses" of the latter.
I hope I don't disappoint my wife. She still seems to like me (I think loving someone is easy...liking someone is the hard thing to do), so I must be doing someting right!
